SHAH ALAM, July 15 (Bernama) -- Police today confirmed the arrest of a husband and wife, founders of a company allegedly involved in organising a marriage programme at a convention centre here, which was said to involve immoral activities and the dissemination of questionable beliefs.
Shah Alam district police chief ACP Mohd Iqbal Ibrahim confirmed the arrest.
“The founder of eHati and her husband have been arrested. Further details will be provided once several procedures are completed,” he said briefly in a statement today.
Earlier, the media reported that lawyer Datuk M. Reza Hassan, representing the couple, also confirmed the arrest and said his clients were detained by Shah Alam police after giving their statements at the Petaling Jaya district police headquarters (IPD).
